Here, we explore the highly visual signs that British Sign Language and American Sign Language poets create as part of the ‘classifier system' of their languages. Signed languages, as they create visually-motivated messages, utilise categoricity (more traditionally How Much Can Classifiers Be Analogous To Their Referents-.Pdf considered ‘language’) and analogy (more traditionally considered extra-linguistic and the domain of‘gesture ).

Much of this visual experience IS achieved through visual analogy using the human body Often, if the signing poets can strengthen a visual image of a concrete referent by creating iconic analogues, they will.

Sutton-SpenceDonna Jo Napol How Much Can Classifiers Be Analogous To Their Referents-.Pdflly accepted that these various physical criteria motivate the handshape because there IS some similarity (though often highly approximate) between the shape of the referent and the shape of the hand representing It.

Within cognitive linguistics, however, the term 'metaph How Much Can Classifiers Be Analogous To Their Referents-.Pdfor- has come to refer more narrowly to cross-domain mappings. Iconicity is a mapping between the two different domains of meaning (the source) and for

Sutton-SpenceDonna Jo Napol How Much Can Classifiers Be Analogous To Their Referents-.Pdfe) (Meh 2010. p 869). Iconicity and metaphor become closely entwined in many signs, which frequently involve both iconic and metaphoric mappings (see e.g. Taub 2001 and Meir 2010). Additionally, in many metaphors the conceptual mapping relies upon ideas of perceptual 1 esemblance, as analogies are f How Much Can Classifiers Be Analogous To Their Referents-.Pdformed between two sets of elements based on then perceived shared characteristics (Rollins 2001).
